I now have a shiny, new wireless mouse for the repaired laptop. And I returned the two tops I bought yesterday because when I tried them on, they looked awful! Yeah, I know, I could have tried them at the store, but they looked nice on the hangers…
Anyway, we gotta leave again in an hour to see our financial guy. Not much will be accomplished today…

I believe they are protecting agricultural products. We were inspected somewhere that way on our vacation in the 1960’s. They don’t want insects that could damage their crops.

That’s it in a nutshell. They’re very protective against invasive species, and to further that goal, a lot of plant products can’t be brought in. Most cacti are forbidden entirely, house plants must be repotted in fresh sterile soil, and it’s best to hide your groceries.
Years back, we were coming back in from Arizona, and almost had to surrender the oranges, but a glimmer of sanity came out when it was realized that the oranges were grown and packaged in CA, then sold in AZ. Once the inspector realized we were simply bringing the fruit back to where it came from, it was OK.
Red It’s out of character for me but I think a nice piece of beef sounds good. Like a filet mignon type hunk of beef.
Congrats on the windfall Rosie
all I ever get in email is advertisements for products to enhance my manhood or that some horny housewife/lonely Russian woman wants to have sex with me.
The sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, it’s only 75 degrees. I think I’ll open my window for a bit. I should clean my room as well but I don’t feel like it. I don’t feel like doing a thing.
So, I finished up irk around three this afternoon and since I was already in town, I went to the sto’ for some needed commestibles. I got charged a hunnert and five dollahs to leave the sto’. :eek: However, I found some really nice ribs on sale (not the used meat kinda sale), plus some nice porterhouse steaks (Moanday night is men’s night over to the church house), and some really good lookin’ chikin boobs and laigs. Since we plan on ribs 'n chikin for the Fourth of July, seemed a smart thing to go ahead and get ‘em at a good price. Beer, ice cream, fruit and fresh veggies were also purchased along with other necessities. Anywho, I’m at da cave, rain appears to be comin’ in and pizza shall be ordered shortly for dindin. Life is good.
Sari you livin’ on the edge rebel you!
Midget go you! Congrats!
gotti at least they weren’t fire ants. Fire ants are the fart blossoms of critters.
Mmmooommm. When you assume the knit position are you always knitting or are you chocheting sometimes? Which do you do more of?
Hubby is cooking filet mignon, baked taters, asparagus, sautéed mushrooms and at my request some creamed corn. The corn will be for tomorrow. I am hungry.
I just ordered a new quilt set for our master bedroom. It will be hubby’s Fathers Day prezzie even though it will not arrive until Tuesday. I hope he will like it. I had my eye on this particular set for a while and the price dropped enough for me to buy it. I wonder how many Fathers will get a bed set? Not many I’m sure. He will like it I hope since it’s so purity. It is very colorful but not feminine. That’s my excuse anyway.
